The Arizona Cardinals will be facing a stiff challenge at home tonight as they host the Seattle Seahawks in an NFC West showdown. With the Hawks sitting atop the division and the Cards having a 3-3 record and 0-2 record in the division, tonight is a must-win game for them if they even want to stay in the discussion for the division crown.

The Cards’ defense ha been stellar once again this year, and defensive end Calais Campbell has been a big reason why. But after a scary injury last week left him in the hospital, it certainly looked like he wouldn’t play tonight.

As it turns out, Campbell will be on the field tonight against Seattle:

His presence is a huge boost for the defense, and coupled with the Arizona home crowd, this could be a defensive slug-fest.
